Learning Management Systems (LMS) of one of the applications in e-learning is widely accepted by undergraduates. The LMS help students and lecturers by facilitating alternative way to learn, communicate and time saving as well as making the learning content easier to be accessed. The users of LMS have reported that the current systems had been unable to fulfill their desired expectations since it was merely used as a tool for communication. More, the findings of the previous studies of students’ attitudes towards use of LMS are inconclusive. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate the students’ attitude towards the use of LMS in Sri Lankan Universities. 120 undergraduates of Rajarata University of Sri Lanka was used for the study using purposive sampling. The results reveal that the variables Perceived usefulness and Perceived ease of use have significant effects to the attitude towards use of LMS...

The results reveal that the variables Perceived usefulness and Perceived ease of use have significant effects to the attitude towards use of LMS. Also, the study confirms that the students have positive attitudes towards use of the LMS. Therefore, university should create an e-learning culture through use of LMS by providing useful content with ease of access to the students.
